The Restoration of the monarchy under King Charles II is the secondary focus of King Charles I's Day (30 Jan) and primary focus of Royal Oak Day, also known as Oak Apple Day. Volume 3 of Gavin's neo-Byzantine Textual Commentary for the Received Text and KJV on Matt. 21-25 (from 2013 at http://www.gavinmcgrathbooks.com), was dedicated on Royal Oak Day, 9 June 2011, being the second Thursday of June. Royal Oak Day is celebrated variously on: 1) most commonly 29 May including Sundays (e.g., Salisbury & Worcester UK); 2) 29 May other than if this is a Sunday, & then Saturday 28 May (Castleton UK); or 3) the 1st/2nd Thursday in June (London Oak Apple Day Parade). Gavin says he selected this June date for the Dedication due to e.g., Royalty's patronage of the London Oak Apple Day Parade; & the fact that in this KJV 400th anniversary year of 1611-2011 this is a tribute to King James Bible translator & holy confessor, Daniel Featly. The seventh ship of the Royal Navy to bear the name, "Royal Oak," HMS Royal Oak saw action in World War I; and was the first British battleship sunk in World War II when peacefully anchored at Scarpa Flow in Scotland she was torpedoed by a Nazi German submarine in October 1939.
